1. Overview

New players in kingdom-building games follow the same pattern: hoard resources, upgrade slowly, and wait for power to rise. But what if the obvious path is the biggest trap? This guide reveals five overlooked, F2P-friendly strategies that unlock faster growth by doing the counterintuitive.

2. Hero / Unit Notes

Baldur is a strong early game hero, but maxing him too early can block your long-term power curve.

B

Baldur

SR
DPS | Early Game: A-tier
Skill Northern Surge: increases damage after critical hits.

Notes Great early game carry, but keep him at 4 stars until you secure a legendary memento.

3. Strategy - Step by Step

  1. Do not hoard gems. Spend every gem on VIP until you hit VIP 9. That unlocks the legendary hero memento, a long-term growth engine far more valuable than early speedups or resources.
  2. Do not 5-star Baldur yet. The memento cost spikes at 5 stars. Keep him at 4 stars and save mementos for a future legendary hero.
  3. Max one skill before moving on. A maxed skill beats three low-level skills. Finish skill one, then fully max skill two before touching skill three.
  4. Use the gem-to-stamina loop. Buy stamina with gems and farm Black Forge enemies on repeat. The loop converts gems into levels, materials, and often more gems.
  5. Specialize in one troop focus. Early game is not the time to build every unit type. Focus on one or two complementary troop types to build a single crushing army.

4. What to Avoid

  • Saving gems for a vague future instead of hitting VIP 9.
  • Rushing Baldur to 5 stars while starving future legendary heroes.
  • Spreading skill points across every ability.
  • Buying raw resources instead of stamina.
  • Splitting upgrades across all troop types.

5. Patch Note / Meta Comment

v1.0.51 does not change VIP progression or stamina value loops. If a future patch adjusts memento costs or stamina rewards, update steps 1 and 4 first.

FAQ

Q: Is VIP 9 really mandatory for F2P?
A: If you want long-term power growth, yes. It unlocks the legendary memento that defines your hero ceiling.

Q: Which strategy should I test first?
A: Start with VIP 9 and the stamina loop. They create compounding gains fast.
